Nicely put. I think that however since Yashua said that before he was crucified and ended the law what He said then held true. But since He paid for all our sin then it is Grace that nullifies it because when G-d sees a Christian sin He sees Yashua who paid the price for that sin.
The Lord Jesus said that He was the telos of the law. Not the cessation of law but the goal of the law. Paul writes in Galatians of the pedagogical use of the law to bring us to Christ. But there are other uses including the civic use (the civil magistrate is to punish bad guys) and the Christian's use for sanctification; that is to be holy or at least pursue holiness. In the latter Christ is the Holy one and a life that is a delight to Him is one of faith and holiness according to the law, which is His very own holiness.
